When we opened the internet via Smartphone Android, there are some problems we encountered. For example, it can not copy articles from a website like when opened via computer.
In fact, the smartphone has been equipped with block area, it also can be seen when doing block the short message. However, sometimes there is also the site admin too strict to maintain any content contained.
In fact, you might just want to take a word or certain paragraphs of interest only, and then writing it send to your friends via text messaging or social media. So there was no malicious intent to steal the full article on the website.
For this case, I have a very precise idea that you consider. It is a tool that you can use to copy the full article on the website. In fact, although the site lock / disable block content.
How does the tool work?Very simple, you just need to copy the URL of the website you want to copy its contents, then put into the input field that we provide, wait loading is completed. Furthermore, it would appear the content you need. If you want to download, please click Download. If you would like a copy, please click Copy ALL Results.
Wait no more, please visit the site to get started, Free!!

Austrian Regional Quality Brand for concrete products
The Association of Austrian Concrete and Precast plants (VÖB) presented a new quality label, that makes the regional concrete products recognizable immediately. The unique brand aims at identifying quality local products and the concrete products have to fulfill a series of criteria in order to be enabled to use the quality brand.
"The quality label says "concrete from the region - a part of us" and it guarantees a lot of advantages" said Robert F. Holzer, Vice President of VÖB. He emphasizes that: "The new quality label is only awarded to manufacturers who produce all of their concrete products (the whole production phase) in Austria according to the local regulations, laws and they comply with the standards" (…)" The quality of service is a crucial part of the guidelines that VÖB imposed on its members, continues Mr. Holzer, because only whose service consistently meets the high quality Austrian standards, receives the quality label. "
FIB is invited to G7 alliance
Fédération l'Industrie du Béton (FIB) was asked by the French Ministry to intervene at the official launch of the G7 Alliance of Efficient Use of Resources. CERIB was represented by Marc Lebrun (CEO of CERIB) in Berlin, Germany on 2 October 2015.
Germany, who holds the Presidency of the G7 Alliance, created the group Efficient Use of Resources with the purpose of exchanging best practices. The goal of the initiative is to drive innovation in this area and to achieve the decoupling between economic growth and use of raw materials.
Marc Lebrun recalled the fundamental role of concrete (the equivalent of an Eiffel Tower every 10 seconds in the world) and its contribution to modern society. His speech demonstrated the efforts made by concrete as a material and also as a product in the context of the circular economy requirements.

National Award Winners
Stormen Concert Hall and Library (DRDH Architects) -Norway
The Norwegian Precast Concrete Price 2015 was awarded to a new library and concert hall, called Stormen, in the city of Bodø, which is situated in an important, however previously undeveloped part of the city center. The new buildings contribute to a revitalization of the area Storgata, Sjøgata, the harbor and Hålogalandsgata. Stormen and its public areas create space for activities in the previously empty harbor quarter. The buildings are situated in a challenging context where they must relate to the existing street grid, the harbor, the landscape as well as the diversity of the surrounding existing buildings.
The challenge is met in an exemplary way by creating two volumes that complete the block without dominating the cityscape.
Both of the Stormen buildings have facades of precast concrete. The white facade elements are brushed and lightly polished highlighting the marble structure in the surface. The geometry of the façade elements is complex; with its precise joints, corners and window openings, it expresses a serene elegance. The geometrical design is symmetrical in both buildings. The facades and columns reaching upwards give the buildings elegance and they also fit well with the surroundings and the coastal landscape.
The innovative use of precast concrete facades is essential for the unique design of these buildings. The details are thoroughly planned and consistently implemented, from the size and form of each element to the small details in the columns, windows and entrances. The precast facade elements are used in a challenging manner, partly due to the overlapping corners as in masonry. The complex pattern of division in the elements invites curiosity regardless of the perspective from which they are viewed.
The project is the result of an excellent cooperation between client, architect and the precast concrete producer.

Prime Minister George Papandreou underlined in Parliament on Friday that "the government is not afraid to be close to the Greek people but, on the contrary, has an obligation to do that".
Moreover, the premier called on Radical Left Coalition (SYRIZA) parliamentary group leader Alexis Tsipras to assume his responsibilities and participate in the discussion on a medium-term programme for the country's economy.
He accused Tsipras of adopting an irresponsible stance and underlined that the government's efforts are aimed at ensuring a future for the country, protect and utilize the state-owned property and "leave salaries and pensions unaffected".
Earlier, Tsipras had maintained that the government is "harsh, neo-liberal, and does not have the support of the people", adding that its "political time has expired and is afraid to face the Greek people".
Tsipras called on the prime minister "to stop telling beautiful lies to the people and instead tell them the truth about the new tough austerity measures that are being prepared".
The prime minister accused Tsipras of making the same criticism with the main opposition New Democracy (ND) party without taking under consideration the problems the ruling party of PASOK has inherited as a result of the dead end policy followed by the preceding ND government.
Papandreou stressed that his government is trying to change the country's course and referred to the creation of the European Support Mechanism that averted the collapse of Greece and other countries.

The one kludge solution here...to make your example geronimo-web.xml work... If in the j2ee-server-plan.xml, we change the EngineGBean to read as follows (concentrate on the initParams' name value): <!-- Engine --> <gbean name="TomcatEngine" class="org.apache.geronimo.tomcat.EngineGBean"> <attribute name="className">org.apache.geronimo.tomcat.TomcatEngine</attribute> <attribute name="initParams"> name=geronimo-properties-realm defaultHost=${PlanServerHostname} </attribute> <references name="hosts"> <pattern> <gbean-name>geronimo.server:j2eeType=Host,*</gbean-name></pattern> </references> <reference name="realmGBean"> <name>TomcatJAASRealm</name> </reference> <reference name="TomcatValveChain"> <name>FirstValve</name> </reference> </gbean> This would effectively work.

From the Orange County Sheriff's Office
FEMA has created a new webpage addressing myths and scams that have spread across social media and the web as Hurricane Irma approaches Florida.
The "Rumor Control" page addresses issues such as a common scam saying that FEMA is hiring employees, as well as myths about diseases such as the plague being spread through flood waters (which is not true).
FEMA urges that you share their webpage with friends and family to clear up these rumors and scams.
Here are some of the rumors FEMA addresses:
Rumor: Pets In Hotels (Transitional Sheltering Assistance)
There are reports that hotels and motels participating in the Transitional Sheltering Assistance Program are legally required to accommodate pets. This is FALSE. (September 8)
Hotels and motels participating in FEMA's Transitional Sheltering Assistance Program do not fall under the Pets Evacuation and Transportation Standards (PETS) Act (Pub. L. 109-308 (2006)). Please call the hotel before you go and ask if pets are permitted.
Hotels must accept service animals and individuals with access and functional needs should check with the hotel to ensure if accessible lodging accommodations are available to meet their needs.
Rumor: Disaster Clean-Up And Inspections
There are reports that disaster survivors should not remove flood-damaged sheetrock, flooring, carpet, etc. until the house is assessed by FEMA or insurance adjusters. This is FALSE. (September 1)
Cleaning up and making temporary repairs to your storm-damaged property will not disqualify you from federal disaster assistance.
Property owners are encouraged to document storm damage to their properties – either with photographs or video – and to then begin cleaning up and making whatever temporary repairs are necessary to make their homes safe and habitable again. Put your health and safety first, take pictures of your damaged home, make repairs to prevent further damage to your property, and keep your receipts to show the inspector.
Rumor: Shelters & ID Check
There are rumors undocumented immigrants cannot go to a shelter because they will be reported to ICE or CBP. This is False.(August 27)
- U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) have stated that they are not conducting immigration enforcement at relief sites such as shelters or food banks. In the rare instance where local law enforcement informs ICE of a serious criminal alien at a relief site that presents a public safety threat, ICE will make a determination on a case-by-case basis about the appropriate enforcement actions. More information is available at U.S. Customs and Border Protection and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) joint statement. The Federal Government strongly encourages all persons to follow the guidance of local officials and seek shelter regardless of their immigration status.
- Most shelters are managed by local communities, the Red Cross, and other voluntary agencies. American Red Cross' humanitarian mission is to feed, shelter, and provide other forms of support without regard to race, religion, or citizenship status. The Red Cross will not ask people to show any form of identification in order to stay in their shelters. In order to receive some Red Cross services, such as meeting with a caseworker to facilitate disaster recovery, they will need to verify a person's pre-disaster address. For people who don't have government-issued identification, the Red Cross can usually do this through alternative means, such as a copy of a utility bill.

The National Bank of the Republic of Macedonia will host the Ninth Conference on Payment and Securities Settlement Systems from 5 to 8 June 2016 in Ohrid, which is traditionally held in cooperation with the central banks of the Netherlands and Portugal. The opening remarks at the Conference will be given by the Vice-Governor of the National Bank, Ms. Maja Kadievska Vojnovic, in charge of the Sector of Financial Market Operations and Payment Systems.The Conference will have an international character, attended by representatives of the European Central Bank, the central banks of Albania, Belarus, Bulgaria, Georgia, Armenia, Kosovo, Moldova, Morocco, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Croatia, Montenegro, the Czech Republic, the financial institution Commerzbank, as well as by representatives of commercial banks, regulators of financial market infrastructure and other financial and non-financial institutions in the Republic of Macedonia. At the Conference, special attention will be paid to the process of harmonization of the Macedonian legislation in the area of payment systems and payment services with the respective EU regulation. Eminent EU experts, representatives of the domestic banking sector and representatives of other local payment services providers will develop an interactive discussion and address the new draft package of Macedonian legislation in the field of payments. The new legislation is expected to contribute toward encouraging competition by allowing entry of non-bank institutions at the market, strengthening the rights of payment services users for obtaining clearer and timely information, lower payment services prices for payment beneficiaries, as well as establishing legal basis for faster integration of Macedonia in the EU and inclusion in the Single Euro Payments Area.In addition, the Conference will cover topics in which lecturers will address the current development of the legal framework for regulating payments at European level, with a special focus on the new revised Directive on payment services, strategic vision 2020 of the Eurosystem, the latest innovations within the Single Euro Payments Area, the sophisticated payment solutions in the e-trading and digital communications era. The Conference will cover the issues pertaining to the development of payment security, compliance with the regulation, financial inclusion, the channels for distribution of cash payments and the payments of the treasury system.By organizing the Conference, the National Bank continuously contributes to the strengthening of its capacity and the capacity of other participants to respond to the latest challenges in the field of payments arising from technological development, innovations and changes in the regulatory framework both at the European level and worldwide.

Social Graces: Slim Aarons' Mid-Century Society Photographs
Artsy Editorial
Film producer Kevin McClory takes his wife Bobo Segrist and their family for a drive in an 'Amphicar' across the harbour at Nassau. Sold in collaboration with Getty Images Gallery London © Slim Aarons
Signature: Estate stamped and numbered edition of 150
Slim Aarons's photographs offer a glimpse into the lives of the American jet-set in the post-war era. Aarons photographed the rich and beautiful in palatial Malibu mansions, at society events, and on lush European beaches, winning the trust of celebrities and capturing the likes of Gary Cooper, Mick Jagger, and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis in private moments. His oeuvre evokes the glamour and grace of midcentury America, depicting what he often said were "attractive people doing attractive things in attractive places." Aarons stopped working in the years leading up to his death, as he was displeased with the trends of magazine journalism that emerged in the 1990s and 2000s. His body of work represents an essential and iconic time-capsule of a bygone era.

5 things to know about the record-breaking freeze
CHICAGO (AP) -- Much of the country grappled Monday with a historic freeze that shuttered schools and businesses at the start of the first full work week of 2014. Flights, trains and bus transportation were disrupted, thousands were left without power and even parts of the country used to fending off hypothermia and frostbite had to take extra precautions as temperatures and wind chills approached record levels.Here are five things to know about the deep freeze. Also, take a look at a photo gallery highlighting how people in the Midwest and elsewhere were dealing with the polar vortex.---1. COLD OUTSIDE? YOU'RE NOT ALONENearly 187 million people, more than half of the nation's population, were under a wind chill warning or advisory Monday.The winds made it feel like 55 below zero in International Falls, Minn., and parts of the Midwest accustomed to temperatures that are cold - albeit seldom this cold.But even the coal fields of Virginia and West Virginia, the wind chill was negative 35.Every major weather-reporting station in Minnesota, North Dakota and Wisconsin reported temperatures below zero at 11 a.m. Monday, and South Dakota would have joined them if not for the reading of 1 at Rapid City.The coldest temperature reported in a 24-hour period through Monday was -36 degrees at Crane Lake, Minn. The warmest: 84 at Hollywood and Punta Gorda, Fla.---2. FLY AWAY FROM THE WEATHER? THINK AGAINNearly 3,200 flights - one out of every 10 domestic departures - were canceled Monday morning, following a weekend of travel disruption across the country. The bulk of those cancellations were in Chicago, Cleveland, New York and Boston.\It's been one weather system after another

Google's Android security bulletin for December includes a number of flaws that vendors will need to patch.
Google is urging Android device makers to fix all the issues in its December security bulletin. Image: Getty Images
Google has published its Android security bulletin for December, warning of 47 bugs across the operating system.
Ten of the vulnerabilities are rated 'critical' in their potential impact, the most severe type of bug, while the other 37 are rated as 'high' priority.
Google said it had split the vulnerabilities into two patch levels in its alert, so that Android smartphone makers can fix a subset of vulnerabilities that are similar across all Android devices more quickly, should they want to.
But it warned: "Android partners are encouraged to fix all issues in this bulletin and use the latest security patch level." It recommended that they bundle the fixes for all the issues they are addressing in a single update.
Google said among the most severe of these flaws is a critical security vulnerability in the media framework that could enable a remote attacker, using a specially crafted file, to execute arbitrary code within the context of a privileged process.
The first group of 19 vulnerabilities, 2017-12-01, also includes a flaw in the framework section, which could enable a local malicious application to bypass user interaction requirements to gain access to additional permissions. Under system, the worst bug could allow a "proximate attacker" to execute arbitrary code within the context of a privileged process.
The second group of 27 bugs, 2017-12-05, security patch level includes under kernel components a vulnerability that could allow local malicious applications to execute arbitrary code.
There are also vulnerabilities in MediaTek and Nvidia components that could let a local malicious app execute arbitrary code within the context of a privileged process. The bulletin also lists nine vulnerabilities in Qualcomm components and nine vulnerabilities in Qualcomm closed-source components.
These bugs won't come as a surprise to the makers of Android smartphones. Google's partners are notified of all issues at least a month before publication. Source-code patches for these issues will be released to the Android Open Source Project repository in the next 48 hours.
Google said exploiting issues on Android is made more difficult by features in newer versions of the Android platform: "We encourage all users to update to the latest version of Android where possible."
However, not all Android makers feel that updating old hardware to the newest version of Android is a particular priority, leaving many smartphones languishing on older and therefore less secure versions.

Columbian Elementary School opened in 1892. We have enjoyed over 100 years of tradition in Northwest Denver. Our "community school" is located at 2925 West 40th Avenue, in Denver on the corner of 40th and Federal Boulevard. Our one story structure was erected in 1985. The facilities staff and supervisors ensure that the building is well maintained, clean and safe for all members. Columbian is air conditioned and we have a multipurpose lunchroom/auditorium, a gymnasium, an art room and a parent resource center.
Outside we have three play structures, adjoined by our soccer field, tetherball and basketball courts. Our community garden, frequently maintained by students and family volunteers, helps us to recognize nature and landscape and natural vegetation. Our colorful multi-ethnic mural and banners created by our students are easily visible from Federal Blvd. and demonstrate the diversity within our halls.
Columbian currently serves around 300 students. Our youngest are three and four years old and students continue through fifth grade. We have 18 teachers in classrooms and in special areas and 15 non-instructional staff who support our students in different ways. Each member of our school community – staff, students and family members – is committed to our students' success! We believe that we provide a welcoming and nurturing environment and instruction that is academically rigorous.

"The enactment of health care insurance reform raises a thorny (and complicated) question for Indian Country: Should American Indians and Alaska Natives eligible for services in the Indian health system buy their own insurance? The first answer ought to be a resounding "no." Clearly the United States has an obligation for health care because of promises made through treaties and statutes. Indeed, the very enactment of the Indian Health Care Improvement Act is a legal restating of this principle. Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said it this way on March 26: "This administration is intent on honoring the obligations of our government-to-government relationship with American Indian tribes, including the promise of adequate health care." But adequate health care is not an insurance plan; especially when that promise is so limited by money. And there is no possibility that Congress will fully fund the Indian health system anytime soon. So where does that leave us? The Government Accountability Office said in a 2005 report: "There remain concerns about the extent to which health care services are available—that is, both offered and accessible—to Native Americans served by IHS." One key issue here is the underfunding of Contract Health Services, money that is used to pay for health care providers outside of the Indian health system. Remember unlike Medicare, Medicaid or the Children's Health Insurance Program, IHS operates on an annual budget instead of an entitlement and it's a limited source of funds. This budgeting notion will not change with health care reform." Get the Story:

Now in it's fourth year, The Wax And Thread Company is the only salon in Brighton and Hove dedicated to waxing and threading, for women and men. Having made our name on the salon scene in Brighton, concentrating only on hair removal, The Wax And Thread Company have gained significant popularity amongst salon goers and regular waxers due to our uniqueness. The age old tradition of Threading has become very popular and is now a preferred first choice method for facial hair removal, as opposed to invasive facial waxing.
We've recognised that waxing is now a regular maintenance routine, it is no longer for an occasion; although a maintenance rather than a luxury treat, that doesn't mean it has to be an unpleasant experience one has to endure. While the emphasis is on removing the hair, clients are encouraged to relax in the calming luxurious environment and be confident that you are in good hands.
The salon itself is cool, clean and contemporary with a relaxing atmosphere. As well as 2 treatment rooms there is also a dedicated threading room. Centrally located in the heart of town, the salon opens 6 days a week including evenings, and is very popular with working professionals and commuters. Our small team of 4 therapists, with 40 years combined experience, and our 2 receptionists look forward to welcoming you.
We are proud to have been a finalist in the Brighton and Hove Independent Business Awards 2016 and the Sussex Women in Business Awards 2016, 2017 and 2018.

If you were to poll a group of people and ask them to name some of the greatest singers of all time, there's a good chance Freddie Mercury's name would come up several times. The legendary crooner from Queen passed away in 1991, but his crystal clear vocals and soaring melodies can still be heard blaring from stereos around the world.
The staff at Playback.fm recently took it upon themselves to edit together footage from four different Queen concert films, along with rare, isolated vocal tracks from the band's iconic hit, "We Are The Champions." They spliced the footage together to sync up with the vocals to honor the late singer, and also to showcase "his presence and consistency as the ultimate stage man." The results are nothing short of stunning as we hear just how much control and strength Mercury really had over his voice.
"We Are The Champions" was written by Mercury and released on Queen's 1977 album, News of the World. The song was intended to have audiences singing and waving along, but perhaps even the band members never realized just how classic this song would become. The song has become synonymous with victory, particularly in sports - my little league team even sang it every time we won a game! In 2009, the song was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame.

The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) announced on Friday that it will be contributing $266 million in order to facilitate a portion of the recovery efforts in countries heavily affected by Ebola.
"As we continue on the road to zero cases, we are here to support the people of West Africa as they begin the long process of rebuilding and restoring their livelihoods," Acting USAID Administrator Alfonso Lenhartdt said.
This announcement came during the International Ebola Recovery Conference that took place in New York this past week. It was organized by the U.N. Earlier in the outbreak, when the first cases of the Ebola virus disease (EVD) were being treated in the U.S., the government gave approximately $2 billion in aid and other response measures. This included the support provided by civilian medical and emergency responders to the three most heavily impacted countries: Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea.
Recovery efforts have also been taken on by the U.S. government, facilitating the enhancement of the health systems in West Africa, including health services not related to EVD treatment, and economic support.
The agency states that significant progress has been made in all countries, and that there are fewer than 50 active EVD cases in each country.

Important information for fans for the away game at Boston United
Boston United v Darlington
Darlington travel to Boston on Saturday for our Vanarama National League North game.
The postcode for the Jakemans Stadium in Boston is PE21 6JN. Bear in mind that on previous occasions when Quakers have played in Boston, there have been delays getting through the town because of heavy traffic, so please allow extra time for the journey.
There is advice on where Darlington supporters will be on the ground separately on this website.
The Club knows that there will be over 300 supporters travelling to the game. We are sure this fantastic show of support will help spur the team on to a great performance.
DFC is proud of its community and family based support and cannot, and will not, tolerate inappropriate and unacceptable behaviour or crowd disturbance of any kind. The Board of Directors is ultimately responsible for the conduct of the Club's supporters at all our football matches and, with your help, we will do everything possible to eradicate the very small minority, of either individuals or small groups, who purport to represent the Club in a manner that may result in the imposition of severe sanctions on the Club.
The Club will continue to work with the police and other authorities to investigate any reported incident of crowd disturbance and identify perpetrators and take the most severe sanction available to it. If you can help us, please e mail the club at [email protected] The more evidence that the police have, the better.
So let's all get behind the team in the proper way and make this a great day out for all the right reasons.

Tied 1-1 in the 10th inning, Ronnie Ramirez knew what he had to do.
"I was thinking, 'just get a base hit,' " the Lexington Legends second baseman said Friday night. "Because we needed it at that time."
That the Legends did.
Ramirez delivered a two-strike single to center.Pinch-runner Marques Williams, who was on second base, scored just ahead of the throw from center fielder Mitch Dening for a 2-1 victory over the visiting Greenville Drive.
Three Legends teamed on a four-hitter, striking out 17, with one walk.
In a matchup of righties, Legends starter Jordan Lyles was magnificent. Stephen Fife of the Drive was even better.
Fife was shut down because of shoulder soreness and weakness during spring training. Friday marked his second game for the Drive.
Limited to five innings, he was perfect. Fifteen up, 15 down, seven on strikeouts.
Lyles lasted six innings, giving up a run on three hits. He fanned 11 and did not walk a batter. Henry Villar fanned four over 22⁄3 innings in relief, and Patrick Urckfitz (2-0) punched out two of the four batters he faced.
David Mailman and Tim Federowicz led off the game with singles. Lyles then retired 12 in a row.
Will Middlebrook ended the streak, leading off the fifth inning with his first homer of the season, to center field.
With Mike Lee in relief of Fife, the Legends got their first runner when Ramirez blooped a sixth-inning single.
An inning later, Steve Brown laced a one-out triple. Brian Pellegrini drove him in with a single to center.
Federico Hernandez led off the bottom of the 10th with a single to short center.
Brandon Barnes bunted Hernandez to second. Williams came in to run. And Martinez came through.
With Manager Tom Lawless waving him home all the way, "my eyes got big," Williams said. "I was hoping I was going to make it. I got there and was safe, and we won the game. That's what's important."
■ Charley Taylor, who has been the Legends' pitching coach for each of their nine seasons, made his first appearance of the season Friday. He had been receiving treatment for bladder cancer.

Kecak Dance Video
Video by: Ramakuta
Kecak Dance performed at several places in the Province of Bali, among others: the Pura Luhur Uluwatu , Pecatu Village, Kuta District, Badung Regency; Batubulan village, Sukawati district, Gianyar regency, and in Hanuman Road, Ubud District, Gianyar Regency. Kecak Dance (Kecak Dance) is the creation of a famous Balinese dancer, I Wayan Limbak, and a German painter, Walter Spies, the 1930's. At first, these two artists fascinated by the ritual dance in which the dancers danced Sanghyang in spirit possessed conditions (trance).
Sanghyang ritual itself is a Balinese ritual derived from pre-Hindu tradition in order to resist the plague. This ritual was later adopted by I Wayan Limbak and Walter Spies became a performing arts to the public for display in various countries in Europe under the Kecak Dance. Kecak Dance is played by a number of dancers (mostly men), between 50 to 150 people, with a duration of between 45-60 minutes. This dance Performers compose vocal instrument (a Cappella) with sound "cak, cak, cak ..." as he raised both arms to accompany the story of Ramayana epic into a story of this dance major. Therefore the spoken chorus dancers are considered similar to a monkey sound, then the foreign tourists often refer to this dance as "Mongkey Dance".
Unlike other types of performing arts of Bali, Kecak Dance is unique because it does not rely on musical instrument to accompany the dance, but a chorus of dancers. The rhythm of sound "cak, cak, cak ..." arranged in such a way so as to produce an alloy that is very harmonious, interspersed with a few accents and other utterances. The dancers who rang the sound "cak, cak, cak ..." are usually bare-chested and wearing only cloth checkered like a chessboard that encircled their waists. While the figures of Rama, Sinta, Ravana, Hanuman, as well as general Sugriwa wear on the show ketoprak. In this dance, rhythmic sounds spoken by the dancers bring an aura of mystical enough for the audience. Especially after the Ramayana story in this dance is complete staged, joined by dance performances and Sanghyang Jaran Sanghyang Dedari which the dancers believed to be possessed by spirits, which are immune when dancing in the embers of the fire.
Dance is a dance Sanghyang Dedari to expel evil spirits are staged by two girls who were virgins. While Sanghyang Jaran is a dance performed by men who possessed pranced like a horse's behavior and dancing in the embers of the fire. Because the hallmark of this Jaran Sanghyang Dance, Kecak Dance is also known as Kecak and Fire Dance (Kecak and Fire Dance). The final performances of this kind of bonus that can invite click amazed the audience. After the show, spectators are also welcome to take pictures with the dancers. Kecak dance is one of Balinese performing arts are on the agenda of the tourist destination. Many travel services provider and package tours that offer this performance agenda. Therefore, tourists who do not want trouble to use the services of travel tour that is widely available in Denpasar, capital of Bali Province. Travel service provider will usually offer a wide range of package tours, one of which is watching the Kecak Dance performances. However, if you want more flexibility with the agenda of the desired tourism, tourists just rent a car chartered by the calculated rental fee per day.
In the city of Denpasar is also available a good variety of lodging inns, hotels, and hotels for tourists who need a place to stay. In addition, various food stalls, nightclubs, and souvenir shops are easily found in this city.
If interested in a short course Kecak Dance, it can be followed at the Bali Arts Center Classical, in the village of Nyuh Kuning, Ubud District, Gianyar, Bali. The course for over an hour consists of exercises and practice Kecak Dance performances by the coaches who already experts. The participants are usually composed of domestic and foreign tourists. Course participants are not restricted to men only, but also for women.
To get to the show locations, travelers can start the journey from Denpasar, capital of Bali Province by using public transport (taxi or chartered cars). If tourists want to watch this show at Pura Uluwatu Luhur, then the long journey that takes about half an hour. If you want to enjoy the show at the Village Batubulan, tourist trip takes 1 hour. Meanwhile, if you want to enjoy the Kecak Dance in Ubud, tourist trip takes about 1 hour.

B cells from mice deficient in mismatch repair (MMR) proteins show decreased ability to undergo class switch recombination in vitro and in vivo. The deficit is not accompanied by any reduction in cell viability or alterations in the cell cycle in B cells cultured in vitro. To assess the role of MMR in switching we examined the nucleotide sequences of Smicro-Sgamma3 recombination junctions in splenic B cells induced in culture to switch to IgG3. The data demonstrate clear differences in the sequences of switch junctions in wild-type B cells in comparison with Msh2-, Mlh1-, and Pms2-deficient B cells. Sequences of switch junctions from Msh2-deficient cells showed decreased lengths of microhomology between Smicro and Sgamma3 relative to junctions from wild-type cells and an increase in insertions, i.e., nucleotides which do not appear to be derived from either the Smicro or Sgamma3 parental sequence. By contrast, 23% of junctions from Mlh1- and Pms2-deficient cells occurred at unusually long stretches of microhomology. The data indicate that MMR proteins are directly involved in class switching and that the role of Msh2 differs from that of Mlh1 and Pms2.

Welcome to all of you from Hay-Net.co.uk! I haven't been a member there all that long, but I have loved connecting with new equestrian bloggers through it. Through this blog I have met so many awesome people that have been there for me with advice and support both when things are going great and when things are not going so great. Ah, the life of an adult amateur! This brings me to today's post, which I am looking for some of that advice and support on:
I found this on eBay:
16.5" County Competitor, Connor's tree size, short flap, includes $200 of accessories, cases and fittings, free shipping, $1,000. Needs billets replaced soonish, otherwise great condition. I know that I am at the poitn that I need a Dressage saddle, after seeing how much better Connor went in Austen's Competitor (a LOT better). And yet, I just can't pull the trigger. How will I afford showing this year? But is showing worth it when I'm doing Dressage in jump tack and knowing how much better he moves in the flat flap of a Dressage saddle?
Talk me on or off the ledge!

Kylie Jenner Keeps An Eye On Tyga At Video Shoot With Bikini-Clad Models — Pics
What do you do when your boyfriend is filming with a bunch of really hot girls? You stop by and surprise him — and them! That's exactly what Kylie Jenner did while Tyga shot a music video with his pal, Chris Brown, on the beach.
Kylie Jenner, 17, did not want any of the sexy models in bikinis getting too comfortable around her man, Tyga, 25. Instead of leaving them all alone on the beach for their video shoot with the rapper and Chris Brown, 26, the youngest Kardashian-Jenner sister showed up unexpectedly and hung out for quite some time. Watch out, hot girls!
Sorry, Tyga, it looks like you're going to have to meet the hot models at your music video shoot another time — because Kylie is running some major interference. Although she doesn't appear in the video itself, Kylie was on set for a majority of the June 3 shoot which took place in Malibu. Thankfully it wasn't just Tyga and a bunch of models, because both Chris and singer Pia Mia were there, too.
When she first arrived, Kylie had to slip out of the tall heels she was wearing so that she could walk on the beach. Before getting to Tyga, she greeted Chris — dressed in head-to-toe bright yellow — with a sweet side hug. Kylie seemed excited to be supporting Tyga who was spotted filming solo scenes on what appears to be a cliff overlooking the beach. He even changed out of his dark-colored hoodie into a bright polo and white shorts for the scene!
In between takes on the beach, Kylie spent some quality time with Pia Mia. Not only were they seen chatting each other up, but when the sun started to get and it got a little chilly out the two petite girls shared a fleece blanket for warmth. Aw!
For those of you that don't know, the video is for Pia Mia's hot new track, "Do It Again." You can hear it by watching the lyric video right here! To hear more about Kylie and Tyga, head over to iTunes and download the HollywoodLife podcast for free!
Tell us, HollywoodLifers — Do you think it's sweet Kylie surprised Tyga on set? Are you excited to see the music video when it premieres online? Comment below with your thoughts!

The IGF's flagship policy guidance and assessment tool is the Mining Policy Framework (MPF). The MPF lays out international best practices in six key pillars of mining policy and law: the legal and policy environment; financial benefit optimization; socioeconomic benefit optimization; environmental management; mine closure and post-mining transitions; and artisanal and small-scale mining.
MPF Pillar 6: Artisanal and Small-Scale Mining
Alec Crawford, IGF Associate:
"The final pillar of the Mining Policy Framework is artisanal and small-scale mining [ASM] and this is a big issue for a lot of our member states. A lot of them struggle with informal ASM that has wide ranging implications for human rights and for environmental protection.
The MPF is really focused on trying to formalize those processes. So, how do you bring the ASM sector into both formal economics systems and formal legislative systems? So how do you include artisanal mining and small-scale in mining codes and mining regulations, and then how do you also bring it into the formal system—so that they are paying taxes and they are contributing to the society and they can be trained on environmental protection and those sort of things? So that's really the focus of our final pillar."

EDMONTON - In Arctic summers, Catherine La Farge camps out at the toe of the Teardrop glacier on Ellesmere Island in Canada's North.
The University of Alberta biologist has watched the ice retreat, up to four metres a year now, giving her an unprecedented view of what was entombed under the ice for 400 years — old rocks, mud, and her specialty, ancient moss.
One day, walking along the edge of the ice, La Farge noticed some of the moss had a greenish tinge. That gave her a hunch — could there be life in that old moss after all?
In an amazing experiment, La Farge found the frozen moss was able to revive itself though it had been buried since the Little Ice Age (1550-1850). Her study, published this week in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science, is shaking up some basic assumptions about land plants.
In the past, when scientists occasionally came across plant material previously frozen under an Arctic glacier, they assumed the plant material was dead. Discoloured and lifeless, it certainly looked like it was.
In 2009, La Farge brought samples back to the lab. On closer examination, she noticed a tiny green stem. There were two possible explanations.
"Either it kept its colour under the glacier or it grew after the moss emerged 400 years later."
There was only one way to find out.
La Farge ground up the old plant material, put it in petri dishes full of potting soil and set it in the grow chamber next to her office. Then she and graduate student Krista Williams and master's student David Wilkie watched for signs of life.
It didn't take long. In about four to six weeks, tiny green filaments or strands called protonema began to grow.
Months later, a dish was almost full of green moss from cells frozen for 400 years. Of 24 samples potted, seven produced new growth.
"It was just incredible," said La Farge, whose work has given scientists another window into the basic life systems of plants.
"Now we have Little Ice Age moss material that produced juvenile plants."
In glaciers, there are all kinds of fungi and bacteria, but no one has ever considered that land plants could survive being entombed underneath, she said.
"Now we have to think there may be populations of land plants that survived that freezing. It makes you wonder what's under the big ice caps in the Arctic and Antarctic and alpine glaciers.
"And we have a 400-year-old lineage of genetic material," she added.
Mosses are especially hardy and ancient — 400 million years old, she said. Mosses played a key role in moving life from water to land in evolution. They evolved from green algae and paved the way for other land plants.
Unlike most other plants, mosses reproduce by cloning their cells so "all you need is even one cell to survive."
Also, moss cells are very powerful — totipotent is the scientific term — because they can reprogram themselves to start growth all over again.
La Farge's work shows that ability to regenerate — the totipotency of a cell — doesn't diminish with age, at least not over 400 frozen years.
"If we could find some moss that went back 1,000 years or 5,000 years we may find some material that could be revived. But it all depends on the specific way the material is buried and the conditions" — cold and dry is best.
A group of researchers in Germany is already using bryophyte cells — basically moss stem cells — in medical research. La Farge's work shows the resilience of the cells which could be a factor in their use.
There might be uses. Before sending colonies of humans to Mars, it might be worth seeing how well moss survives the cold dry climate, she said.
La Forge's discovery shakes up a few assumptions of glacial science, a major one being that as glaciers carved their way forward they crushed everything beneath them. The landscape from retreating ice can no longer be considered barren of land plants ready to grow again. Mosses could be a key agent for regenerating the land.
There's one other significant aspect to this discovery. While biological diversity is shrinking in the world, the frozen world under glaciers could provide an "unrecognized genetic reservoir."
These are reservoirs that could be tapped in the future," La Farge said.
"We really have not examined all the biological systems that exist in the world; we don't know it all.
"We need curiosity-driven research to make these discoveries."
La Farge's co-authors on the study include Williams, Wilkie and Arctic researcher John England, also at the University of Alberta
